A stainable decorative sheet having good adhesion between a paper base material and a nonwoven fabric with a surface excellent in tactile sensation and stainability, excellent transparency, and a method for coloring the stainable decorative sheet. The stainable decorative sheet includes a paper base material, an adhesive layer, a nonwoven fabric layer, and a transparency improving layer in a predetermined structure, wherein the nonwoven fabric layer partially has a filling part A and a filling part B in a part of voids among fibers of the nonwoven fabric layer.

Described is a composite made from a woven fabric, a non-woven fabric, or a knitted face fabric and a non-woven fabric. The woven fabric, the non-woven fabric, or the knitted face fabric is needle punched such that fibers protrude into the non-woven fabric. The woven fabric, the non-woven fabric, or the knitted face fabric has a first polymer having a first melting point and a second polymer having a second melting point being higher than the first melting point. The nonwoven backing material comprises a third polymer having a third melting point and a fourth polymer having a fourth melting point being higher than the third melting point. The woven fabric, the non-woven fabric, or the knitted face fabric is further bonded to the nonwoven backing material applying heat to at least partially melt or soften the first polymer and the third polymer such that they bond together.

A metal roofing system contains, in order a roof deck, a fire resistant (FR) fleece, and a metal sheeting system. The second side of the FR fleece faces the roof deck. The FR fleece contains a plurality of FR staple fibers and a plurality of first char scaffold fibers. The FR fleece has a fleece thickness defined as the distance between the first side and the second side. The metal sheeting system contains a plurality of metal sheets having an upper and lower side, where the lower side of the metal sheeting system faces the first side of the FR fleece. The metal sheets have an average metal sheet thickness defined as the distance between the upper and lower sides, where the thickness of the FR fleece is at least about 3 times the average metal sheet thickness. The FR fleece has a density of less 0.5 g/cm.sup.3.

The invention provides a material which comprises a paper substrate and a nonwoven substrate having a low density which can be used as filter for a smoking or vaping article.

A high-adsorption-performance nanofiber filter medium includes a support material and a composite nanofiber filtration layer that includes multiple nanometer composite nanofiber layers deposited and stacked on the support material. The nanometer composite nanofiber layer includes first, second, and third nano-powder composite nanofibers, which are uniformly mixed by means of an airflow or are sequentially laminated to form the nanometer composite nanofiber layer. The nanometer composite nanofiber layer formed through sequential lamination includes first, second, and third nanofiber layers. The first nanofiber layer includes multiple first nano-powder composite nanofibers. The second nanofiber layer is stacked on the first nanofiber layer and includes multiple second nano-powder composite nanofibers. The third nanofiber layer is stacked on the second nanofiber layer and includes multiple third nano-powder composite nanofibers. The composite nanofiber filtration layer is formed of multiple nanometer composite nanofiber layers, so that the high-adsorption-performance nanofiber air filter medium shows improved performance.

The invention relates to a method of forming a biodegradable nonwoven fabric, the nonwoven fabric obtained by this method, and a system of devices for carrying out this method, to be used for the manufacture of cellulosic articles for clean-up work and sanitary products, and medical uses.

The present invention provides a non-woven fabric for supporting a solid electrolyte in which heat-fusible composite fibers with a crimp are contained in an amount of not less than 60 mass % and not more than 100 mass % and are heat-fused, and a solid electrolyte sheet. The non-woven fabric for supporting a solid electrolyte is excellent in process performance, is satisfactorily filled with a solid electrolyte, is suitable for achieving a thin solid electrolyte sheet, and has few hole defects. The solid electrolyte sheet is excellent in self-sustainability and flexibility.
